Barcelona sports director Txiki Begiristain has confirmed the signing of Athletic Bilbao striker Santi Ezquerro.
The Spaniard becomes Barca's second capture - both Bosmans - after PSV Eindhoven captain Mark Van Bommel. Begiristain said of Ezquerro: "He fulfills the profile perfectly that we needed and, in addition, he'll finish his contract at the end of this season.
"He is a quality player, of very intelligent movement on the pitch, that is emphasized by his versatility.
"He will contribute much to the team because he can play in three different positions. He has had a great season with Athletic and now he will arrive at Barcelona with much ambition and desire to win titles."
